About the piece
Painted by Édouard Bertin, this Romantic landscape depicts the sources of the Alpheus river. The composition is dominated by a sheer, wooded precipice from which a slender waterfall descends into a shadowed valley, while a distant Greek temple sits atop the sun-drenched peak. In the foreground, a lone figure sits in contemplation, adding a quiet narrative element to this majestic natural scene.
